tires too big?
i got more than one quesion here guys.
#1- i want to try a mickey thompson et street 235-50-15 on a dc2, is this possible?
#2- if this is not quite possible what mods must i make to accomplish this?
#3- and if there is possibly a chance i would be able to fit a slightly larger tire than 235-50-15, what must i accomplish to fit them on? thanks guys.

Why would you want a tire that big?.........just get slicks if you're looking for traction - or get some Azenis, or some BF Goodrich tires..........235 is not smart at all - I had 225 on my prelude once before - and it was fine.
I just think you'll have problems with fitment if you go 235

i want a tire that will HOOK! for the street. why would 235's be trouble? and i doubt azeniz will out perform m/t.

I never said anything about an Azeni outperforming m/t - not once.
I was talking about strictly fitment - but if your suspension is fine, you shouldn't have a problem.
